Cocktails with Fraise des Bois liqueur
Fraise des bois liqueur is a berry liqueur made from wild woodland strawberries steeped in spirit and sweetened.
ABV15–18%
Taste profile
Ripe wild strawberry dominates — deeper and more perfumed than the cultivated fruit — over a soft, syrupy sweetness with a faintly floral edge.
How it's used
Reached for when a drink needs a concentrated strawberry note, it works as a sweet flavour accent stirred or shaken into the build; a small measure carries plenty of fruit and sugar.
Substitutes for Fraise des Bois liqueur
Another berry liqueur, ideally a strawberry one, though the wild-fruit intensity is hard to match.
Description
Small, intensely aromatic wild strawberries are macerated in neutral spirit, then sweetened and bottled at a low proof. The fruit's concentrated character sets the liqueur apart from those built on cultivated garden strawberries.
